    You're thinking too big with that idea.
    I think Ponder might be the one QB that has started in the league last year and has looked worse than EJ has this preseason. Maybe I'm giving OBD too much credit, but with letting Palmer go and only leaving EJ and Tuel, they have to have some sort of plan. Probably a lousy cockamamie plan, but still a plan.

    A little surprised by the Cohen cut.

    Disappointed Dombrowski didn't get a chance to punt in a game.

    Surprised about Cohen myself, not letting Dombrowski punt makes less sense with Moorman evidently on the thinner side of ice, and now I read they're trying to trade Urbik.

    I felt bad for Naaman Roosevelt, he could have gotten some reps, any reps these past games also. Signing, playing, and cutting Palmer in what, 4 days, makes no sense to me. Kind of torks me off they were so sure of their QB's before camp and are back to desperately seeking one again at the start of regular.

    Watch the Bears sign Palmer again just so they can ask him what he told Jim Schwartz.

    Then cut him again. The Bills then resign him to ask what he told them he told Jim Schwartz.

You truly can't make this stuff up.
    And then they cut Cohen, the best defensive player in preseason. smh

    I cringed and threw up in my mouth a little when I heard EJ Manuel's name being drafted.

    Once I read Lecter being very happy about the pick, it confirmed the doom.

    do you remember when i flipped my lid over the drafting of Lee Evans and not trading up for Ben Rothlesburger? That still drives me nuts. Its not often i see a guy in college and think "all pro" but Big Ben had "All Pro" written all over him in college. Instead we went Lee Evans and JP Losman. That draft still gets under my skin

    Well, that draft still gets under my skin too, but mostly because of what they did with Losman.

    They drafted him as a mobile QB because Bledsoe was a statue. I was real excited, picturing rollouts, run and gun, etc...we had Sam Wyche as QB coach, which I thought was excellent. Wyche started out saying his meetings with Losman were exciting, the kid had such enthusiasm you wanted to shove the tables aside and start playing some football right there.

    Then every preseason report started revolving around how they were working intently and with difficulty to break Losman of his footwork to make him stay in the pocket with a shorter drop and faster release. They were trying to make him into Bledsoe, the guy they drafted a mobile QB to replace. So they drafted a mobile QB to replace an immobile one, and the first order of training was to make him immobile.

    Oh it made me gnash my teeth. I didn't figure it was Wyche's idea. But it made me look so much closer at what they were doing with QB's. Like Kelly was adept at calling his own plays so did they try to "break him" of audibles ?

    Then they drafted Edwards and I was beside myself. You replaced an immobile QB with a mobile QB you insisted become less mobile, then replaced him with someone fragile and less mobile and tried making him more mobile ? I settled in for the long patient hiring/firing cycle after that. Getting close again.

    Grab a project QB, and don't treat him like one. If they'd have gotten Luck they'd have tried making him RG3, if they got RG3, they'd have tried making him Andy Dalton.

    Seattle cut Terrell Pryor. Maybe he's the next underwhelming option.

    He played well in the preseason closing game.

    Can't sign him though, he may challenge for the starting job.

    Should we even be shocked that we cut Cohen? The guy wreaked havoc all preseason...

    There is no way he challenges for any starting job
